Genetic Transformation Of Bael (Aegle Marmelos Corr.), Rajesh Pati Oct 2013

Genetic Transformation Of Bael (Aegle Marmelos Corr.), Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

Aegle marmelos Corr. is better known for its medicinal values rather than its edible quality. Every part of the plant viz. leaves, fruits, roots, and the bark are used for treating various diseases related to heart, stomach, bacterial, fungal, viral, worms, fertility, fever and cosmetics. Marmelosin is one of the major compounds (coumarin), used to treat various diseases. Till date, there are no varieties developed for commercial orchards of Bael and hence, regarded as one among the underutilized fruits of India. Therefore, there is an urgent need for breeding new and cultivable varieties in Aegle marmelos. But the problem for …


Micropropagation In Fruit Crops, Rajesh Pati Oct 2013

Micropropagation In Fruit Crops, Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

Micropropagation is a proven means of producing millions of identical plants under a controlled and aseptic condition, independent of seasonal constraints. It not only provides economy of time and space but also gives greater output and allows further augmentation of elite disease free propagules. India is homeland of many important fruit crops such as Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn), bael (Aegle marmelos Corr.), Guava (, Psidium guajava), jamun or black plum (Syzygium cuminii L. Skeels.), Mango (Mangifera indica) and Papaya (Carica papaya).


In Vitro Plant Regeneration And Genetic Assessment Among Regenerates Using Molecular Markers In Aegle Marmelos Corr., Rajesh Pati Oct 2013

In Vitro Plant Regeneration And Genetic Assessment Among Regenerates Using Molecular Markers In Aegle Marmelos Corr., Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

Bael (Aegle marmelos Corr.) is an important medicinal fruit tree. The fruit pulp contains marmelosin, which is a laxative, diuretic, is being used in many patented drugs in India. Micropropagation technology can be gainfully employed in mass multiplication of improved bael varieties. We have developed micropropagation protocol of bael through shoot bud culture. It was imperative to test genetic fidelity of micropropagated plants using molecular markers (RAPD, DAMD and ISSR).


Histological And Biochemical Changes In Aegle Marmelos Corr. Before And After Acclimatization, Rajesh Pati Apr 2013

Histological And Biochemical Changes In Aegle Marmelos Corr. Before And After Acclimatization, Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

Maximum mortality of micropropagated plants occur during acclimatization phase because plantlets undergo rapid and extreme changes in physiological functioning, histological and biochemical changes. In order to investigate the actual reason of this limitation, test samples were collected at different stages of micropropagation of Aegle marmelos Corr. (In vitro stage, acclimation stage). The biochemical result showed that micropropagated plantlets produced significantly low total chlorophyll (0.042 mg/g fresh weight), reducing sugar (3.227%), NR activity (1.353 NO2/h/g fresh weight) and but higher protein (0.048 μg/g) during in vitro phase. The in vitro raised plants showed abnormal histological features like altered leaf mesophyll, absence …


In Vitro Clonal Propagation Of Bael (Aegle Marmelos Corr.) Cv. Cishb1 Through Enhanced Axillary Branching, Rajesh Pati Oct 2008

In Vitro Clonal Propagation Of Bael (Aegle Marmelos Corr.) Cv. Cishb1 Through Enhanced Axillary Branching, Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

Rapid clonal micropropagation protocol of Aegle marmelos (L.) Corr. cv. CISH-B1 was achieved by nodal stem segment of mature bearing tree. Three centimeter long shoots having one axillary bud excised from 10-15th nodal region of shoots during September gave quick in vitro bud burst (5.33 days) when cultured on MS medium supplemented with BAP, 8.84 μM + IAA 5.7 μM. The maximum number of proliferated shoots (9.0/explant) were obtained on same medium supplemented with BAP 8.84 μM + IAA 5.7 μM. The micro shoots were rooted (100 %) on ½ strength MS medium supplemented with IBA 49.0 + IAA 5.7 …
